At Patterdale Hall we can offer a full range of outdoor activities, all based either onsite or within easy reach of our front door. We have access to three local crags, boathouses on the shore of Ullswater where the kayaks, canoes, paddle boards and sailing dinghies are kept, and our gardens and grounds where the challenge wall, ropes course, gorge and archery range are all just a short walk from the Hall's front door.

Activity Provision

Whilst it is more normal for us to provide activities to groups that are residential at the Hall, it is possible for us to also provide activities for non residential groups, and also on occasion to provide activities at alternative venues.

Groups that are residential at Patterdale Hall are, of course, welcome to organise all or part of their own programme, but please be aware that the Patterdale Hall AALS licence only covers programmes organised and run by Patterdale Hall. Outdoor equipment is not normally available to groups undertaking their own programmes.

All programmes are bespoke and tailored to each individual group visiting the centre. We work with group leaders to build activity programmes which are age appropriate and suitable for the time of year. We are also on hand to suggest adjustments to programme that can help keep within a group's budget requirements too.

Activities List

Evening activities can also be included in your activity programme. Depending on the time of year, day light and weather, these could be anything from night walks and orienteering to indoor games and archery.
